NCT03442608

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, multi-centre, randomized,controlled trial to compare the efficacy of long-term mild hypothermia with normothermic intensive management in patients with poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The primary hypothesis is that the induction of mild hypothermia (maintained at 32-35℃) for at least 5 days would improve the outcome of patients at six months post hemorrhage compared with normothermia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Neurological function

    The neurological function will be evaluated at 6 months after hemorrhage by 2 specialized investigators who are unaware of the patients' allocation according to five-category Glasgow Outcome Scale as follows: 1, death; 2, vegetative state - unable to interact with the environment; 3, severe disability - unable to live independently but able to follow commands; 4, moderate disability - capable of living independently but unable to return to work or school; and 5, good recovery - able to return to work or school.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Intracranial pressure

    Admission, day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, day 6, day 7, day 14, until the monitor is removed

  • Length of ICU stay

    6 months post hemorrhage

  • Length of hospital stay

    6 months post hemorrhage

  • Frequency of complications
